As you may start or have already noticed, Chrome, Firefox and other major browsers are starting to flag websites that are not using SSL certificates and HTTPS as "Not Secure". Google also rewards HTTPS secure websites with better search engine results.

Client security should be part of your daily company processes. Watch out for phishing emails, use strong passwords, and utilize a secure client portal for sharing client documents.

If your website has the SSL certificate installed, the major browsers will show visitors the green light. Various HTTPS SEO studies seem to validate that HTTPS-secured sites improve your search rankings.

If you are not currently a website subscriber, the free SSL certificate might be enough to get you to make the switch. Schedule a free demo to get the power of CountingWorks behind your practice.
